They think this Uighur is the Bangkok Bomber

Update : Emrah Davutoglu the Turkish husband of Wanna Suansan from Southern Thailand has just been implicated.

The Bangkok Post

So this is what 10 million baht can yield.

The nabbing of the person suspected to be the Bangkok Bomber just as he was about to cross into Cambodia.

The fact that no one will ever tip off the Thai authorities again , since they decided that they and not informants should take the bounty is beside the point .

A farang observation on the investigations into the Bangkok Bomber

Some farangs complain a bit too much.

But I have to say this guy here ( probably someone who used to be vocal on the social network but thanks to a warning by the Thai police , has gone under and reemerged with a fake facebook profile ....or not ) he's not far off.

The way he put it made me chuckle a bit. 

Since according to him , the authorities seem to be sitting on their butt , let me put forth some observations of my own.

My own . Yet another armchair internet sleuth observation if I may say so.

Here's what I think.

10 Million Baht yes TEN MILLION BAHT - Bounty for the Bangkok Bomber

Update : The reward is now 10 million baht. Not 1 million not 3 million but TEN MILLION BAHT.

That's roughly around 1.7 Million MYR , 

USD 280,000 , 

Euro 240,000.

 Bounty hunters , here is your best clue.

This work uploaded by by netizen Neewsy Pinky is better to go by than the laughing stock of a police sketch ( 2nd pic ) found below.

CCTV screengrab image compilation of the Bangkok Bomber

Well it's about time these images were released. 

Apparently , the times have been adjusted ( whatever that means ) but the release of a timeline does help put things into perspective for a better analysis.

Better late than never.

If the Bangkok Bomber had a makeover

So far , I've found 2 input from netizens.

1. What he would look like if he were clean shaven or bald 

2. Went for different cropped hairstyles or dyed his hair 

Hunt for the Bangkok Bomber - the latest detainee

Here's the latest detainee.

Said to be Swiss or French. 

What do you think ? 

Meanwhile , the Bangkok Post casts the spotlight on Uighurs

There were rumours flying around and now this has made its way to the mainstream media.

Extremely disturbing to even entertain such thoughts as the Uighur factor has been considered before in the plane that still has not surfaced.

Personally , I hope this does not prove to be true .

Why this man is suspected to be the Bangkok bomber

Shocking isn't this ? 

Well some people think that this passport is probably a fake ( or recently produced ) . Because as you can see later below , the person in possession of it looks far younger than approaching 50 years of age .

The Bangkok blast suspect

Update :  CCTV Footage of Bangkok blast suspect

Thai police have released images of a suspect.

The pic on the right shows him with a backpack.

Another without.

As the bomb is believed to weigh around 3 kilos it does put him in a tight spot and if the authorities do nab him , he has one hell of explaining to do.
